from lt.dell.com
also outside the extended focal distance was nice to have-great improvement over point-n-shot.

the macro feature is great for flowers and close up shots, and the 20x zoom for distance shots.
from www.amazon.com
this camera is great for taking pictures at a distance, like shots during the the school play or on the ball field.
from www.amazon.com
the zoom lense is simply unbelievable but a tripod is required for really exploring the distance.

a series glass; a higher resolution lcd that's the same size as the old a640 but produces much better quality images; a distance sensing flash that won't blow out subjects close to the camera.
from www.amazon.com
while i am not saying that it is as good as having a 300mm lens (which i also had) the shots that i got from a distance were remarkable.
from www.amazon.com
as for the zoom, the 6x optical is impressive by itself, but add to that the 4x digital -for a total 24x zoom- and the distances at which one can take detailed photos are often mindboggling.
from www.buydig.com
improvements from the a640: 12mp; image stabilization; a 6x lens that's much improved from any previous a series glass; a higher resolution lcd (same size as old a640 but much better quality images);

Nikon D40

Best Price: $544.00

from "Scott", www.bhphotovideo.com
we are seeing that the 18-55mm lens doesn't get us close enough for people at any distance so we will need a longer lens but we expected to need one anyway so that's ok.
from www.bestbuy.com
the megapixels are more than enough and seem to have been quality than my sd850, however i would definently recommend buying a better lens if you plan on taking any action photos from a distance.
from www.bestbuy.com
no distance shots, light sensitivity at a minimal, and movement with the slilghtest hand movement.i needed the feel of a real camera in my hands that i could be sure was steady.
from www.bhphotovideo.com
yesterday i took my completely manual macro shot of a 5mm ladybug from 10 cm distance, and the results thrilled me...!

Nikon D90

Best Price: $1,100.00

from www.amazon.com
you will never be able to move the camera out of range without insane levels of care to keep your subject exactly in the distance from were your pre-focused it.
from www.amazon.com
the 18-105mm lens is great for indoor/close up shooting, the 300mm works well for distance.
from www.amazon.com
these cameras have lower sitting lenses due to the fact that, they do not have as much of a distance to cover to prevent lens shadow (they ship with smaller lenses in their kits)
from www.amazon.com
so, it's really only good for subjects that remain at the same distance and aren't moving too much.
from www.amazon.com
- i didn't think that would be the problem, but i miss that manual focus window that shows distance.
